Fashion Exposed: Lost Not Lonely at Debut
One of the most exciting and positive things about the Fashion Exposed fair is a program called 'Debut'. All about unearthing and nurturing upcoming designer talent, Debut has helped many young designers break into the competitive playing field that is the fashion industry. At the Sydney fair this year (which runs from March 8-10, 2009) there are 12 finalists for Debut, falling under the two categories of Apparel and Accessories.
One of the finalists in the Accessories category is emerging label Lost Not Lonely (pictured above). Detailed and unique, this collection was inspired by dust, diesel and dirty trucks; a homage to the designer's upbringing around a family-run trucking business in small town New Zealand.

2009 Fall/Autumn Colour Trends from Pantone
Autumn (Fall) is a favourite season of mine, the cold is coming back and it's easier to start dressing in layers again without breaking out into a profuse sweating fit not unlike one achieved with a vigorous workout (well at least it seems like that in the Southern Hemisphere). That's enough of talk of sweat; what we're really here to talk about are the colour trends for 2009. Today's come courtesy of Pantone who have just released their color interpretation of the Autumn/Fall 2009 fashion trends.
